It was the last Zenit launch to use the Vostok-K, before launches switched to the Vostok-2 starting with the next launch attempt in June 1962.

It conducted a four day mission, before being deorbited and landing by parachute on 29 April. The spacecraft's orientation system failed, which resulted in only partial completion of the mission.
